1[[A Song of degrees of David [Beloved].]] If [it had not been] the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] who was on our side, now may Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel of God] say;

2If [it had not been] the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

3Then they had swallow (to approve, commend, accept)ed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [be] the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], who has not given us [as] a prey to their teeth.

7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8Our help [is] in the name of the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], who made heaven and earth.
